Transmigrated as Cannon Fodder — I Rise to Female Lead Through Hard Work Chapter 194: Entering the Nest of Fortune

Anmin had rosy cheeks and sparkling eyes, her head slightly lowered, and a smile playing on her lips, clearly in a good mood. Yi Roujing purposely lowered her head to et her gaze, startling Anmin into taking a step back.

Seeing Yi Roujing’s mischievous expression, Anmin shifted her gaze aside, a bit annoyed, and pushed Yi Roujing, "What’s up, sister-in-law?"

"What could possibly be up with ? I’m just seeing how our little Anmin, the precious cabbage we’ve raised, is being picked by soone else. But at least the one who picked you is a good one," Yi Roujing chuckled.

"What did Huang Xiaobao say? I noticed that after you ca out of the room, your smile nearly reached the back of your ears," Yi Roujing asked curiously.

"Sister-in-law—" Anmin felt both shy and anxious.

"Can’t say?"

"It’s not that." Anmin wanted to get Yi Roujing’s opinion, "Xiaobao said he’s renovating our new house."

Yi Roujing raised an eyebrow in surprise, "You won’t be living with your elders after marriage?"

"How did you know that, sister-in-law?" Anmin exclaid. Her first reaction upon hearing this was about the house being redecorated, "You’re amazing, sister-in-law."

Yi Roujing smiled and patted Anmin’s head, "Yes, not bad, not bad, it’s a good family, living separately is nice."

"Really?" Anmin asked in bewildernt, scratching her head.

"Yes." Yi Roujing nodded, secretly admiring the wisdom of the Huang Family, "Be filial to your elders, love and support your husband, trust each other, your good days are yet to co."

"Yes." Anmin nodded along. She had co to trust Yi Roujing’s words more and more over ti.

After sending off the Huang Family, Ding Weihuo and his team went to work on the harvest, but Yi Roujing, Anmin, and Xia Xingchen weren’t let to go. However, the three won couldn’t stay idle, especially with Yi Roujing thinking about that patch of Dendrobium and the two wolves.

Anmin had heard about the wild boar incident from Yi Roujing and knew they had to see the wolves, so she went to the kitchen to prepare.

Xia Xingchen knew nothing about it, so Yi Roujing explained the situation to her.

"I didn’t tell you before because I didn’t want to scare you, so if you’re afraid, you don’t have to go see them. We can head directly to the mountain lake and gather so herbs," Yi Roujing said.

"Wolves, huh, I’ve never seen one," Xia Xingchen said, shivering at the thought and feeling impressed by Yi Roujing and Anmin’s courage.

Xia Xingchen’s perception of wolves changed upon seeing the robust male wolf and the adorable cub cuddling up to Yi Roujing, showing friendliness. Are these even wolves? They seem even cuter than dogs.

Anmin handed her homade treats to the wolves, and then the three of them headed towards the mountain lake.

Upon reaching the cliff and the lake, Anmin exclaid, "As a true mber of the Dingping Production Team, I never knew there was such scenic beauty up here. I must have missed out!"

Yi Roujing brought a net sack with her, dropped it down, and then the three of them began picking herbs from the cliff.

"Is this also a herb, sister-in-law? You sure know a lot," Anmin said while picking and praising, then leaned closer to ask quietly, "Is this more valuable compared to lingzhi and ginseng?"

"No," Yi Roujing laughed.

Anmin looked briefly disappointed but quickly perked up to ask, "But it’s not cheap, right?"

"Compared to common herbs, it is valuable."

Receiving a satisfying answer, Anmin picked even more enthusiastically.

The three of them filled their baskets to the brim and were sweating from the exertion.

"Xingchen, when we sell yours, I’ll share the proceeds with you," Yi Roujing said with a smile.

"Sister-in-law, there’s no need for that," Xia Xingchen protested, "I’ve been eating and living at the Ding Family without paying for board and lodging. Even when I buy so food back, I get nagged, and now you want to share the profits with ."

"You give ration tickets every month, and you do buy a lot of things for the house every month," Yi Roujing said helplessly, "I just think you should save up so money for a dowry."

Upon hearing those three words, Xia Xingchen thought of Gu Shizhao, blushed, and fled, "I—I’ll go check on the net sack."

"By the way, I wonder how Gu is doing in Jing City now?" Anmin feigned concern.

"He’s fine, he just joined the Ministry of Finance and needs to get familiar with his colleagues," Xia Xingchen replied naturally.

"Oh, as expected of Xingchen, so well-inford about her man. Did Gu give you a call?" Anmin asked slyly.

Xia Xingchen, realizing she’d been tricked, chased after Anmin playfully, "Ah, Anmin, you’ve been corrupted by sister-in-law..."

Yi Roujing watched the two young won play around and went to fetch the net sack herself. She gave it one tug, "Whoa, can’t pull it up. Co and help."

Upon hearing this, Xia Xingchen and Anmin stopped playing, went over to help, and the three of them pulled up the net sack, staring in astonishnt at the struggling fish inside.

"Why so many?" Anmin stared at the net sack filled densely with fish, at least a dozen, each weighing at least three to four pounds, "Oh dear, we brought too few tools."

The lively fish were hard to handle, so the three of them carried their baskets and the net sack down the mountain. But as they passed by the wolves’ den, the male wolf and cub were waiting, with two wild chickens and two rabbits at their feet, which they nudged towards Yi Roujing and the others.

Yi Roujing took two fish from the net sack and placed them before the wolves, then grabbed the wild chickens and rabbits. They had so much stuff that it was hard to carry, but fortunately, with everyone busy harvesting in the fields, they didn’t encounter anyone on the way down.

Anmin was still pained over receiving less than a quarter of the boar at from the wolves previously. This ti was better.

They put the fish in the water tank for keeping, and the wild rabbits and chickens, they boiled water, plucked feathers, and skinned them imdiately. It was hot, and leaving them would spoil them, so apart from what they planned to eat, the rest had to be dried.

Anmin was in charge of cooking at noon, stir-frying rabbit at purely without vegetables and making braised fish, braising four fish to fill a pot. One dish was sent to Mr. Qi, and another to Bai Wei.

With two at dishes, they made a few vegetable dishes and an egg soup, and the sumptuous lunch was ready.

During the double harvest, there wasn’t ti to eat at ho, so Anmin, Yi Roujing, and Xia Xingchen brought a basket, delivering it with a small clay pot of water.

"Wow, Anmin is looking more and more like a city lady."

"She’s working in the finance section of a food factory, that’s a brainy job, not like the workshop. Of course, she’s getting more elegant."

"She has good foundations. Even before she moved to the city, she never shirked fieldwork, which is why she got noticed by a good family with a car."

"That young man is handso as well, not worse than Anguo. When his family got out of the car yesterday, that old lady looked like she ca from a wealthy family. She’s going to be living the good life."
